Here are the final choices for our 2011-2012 curriculum!
Kindergarten:
Bible: Bible Study for all Ages
Reading: Ordinary Parent’s Guide to Teaching Reading (Wise & Buffington)
Writing: A Reason for Handwriting K
Math: Horizons Kindergarten Math
History/Science/Art: Five in a Row
And, of course, lots of reading out loud!
For Kindergarten, I plan to keep things basic and focus on Bible, reading, writing, and math. This is our first year homeschooling and I want to avoid burnout for both Caleb and myself! We are incorporating Five in a Row to add some fun hands-on activities into our day.
Preschool:
Lillian is almost 2 1/2 and while I don’t think it’s necessary to do “preschool” with her, I have focused time with her every day. We will play, color, draw, read, paint, and use some of the resources listed below. At this age, I believe that learning should be fun and not forced.
Tot School Printables from 1+1+1=1
Toddler Calendar
Letter of the Week curriculum (later in the school year)
I also plan to participate in the Tot School link up every week.
